This paper describes the application of endosseous titanium implants that have been inserted into the vascularized bone of the radial forearm composite flap, used for mandibular reconstruction. The technique described allows full orofacial rehabilitation to be achieved, following ablative surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy.
